Job Description

Imagine a piloted air taxi that takes off vertically, then quietly carries you and your fellow passengers over the congested city streets below, enabling you to spend more time with the people and places that matter most. Since 2009, our team has worked steadily to make this dream a reality. We’ve designed and tested many generations of prototype aircraft capable of serving in a network of electric air taxis. We’re looking for talented, committed individuals to join our team as we push onward toward certifying the Joby aircraft, scaling our manufacturing, and launching our initial commercial service.

In this position, you will compose and decompose requirements, map requirements, write tests, run tests, and analyze results from simulation and flight tests. You will work closely with the flight control, certification, flight test, and software verification teams, to develop safety-critical airborne software for an electrical advanced air-mobility aircraft. You should have a good understanding of MATLAB and Simulink, have experience optimizing tests to run quickly and in parallel, be familiar with Monte Carlo analysis, and be comfortable reducing large volumes of test results into manageable, justifiable summaries and conclusions.

Required

  • BSc in mechanical engineering, electrical/electronics engineering, mechatronics, aerospace engineering, computer science, or a related field
  • 1+ years of experience in MATLAB/Simulink
  • Strong problem-solving skills
  • Attention to detail and process
  • Strong English communication skills (written and spoken)

Desired

  • 3 or more years of experience working with linear and control systems
  • Knowledge of software testing, particularly Test-Driven Development
  • Python programming
  • Experience with requirement-based testing for verification and validation
  • Familiarity with RTCA DO-178 and DO-331 standards
